An arcane, self-illuminating, iridescent, spiral-like structure of unknown origin has been shining in the abyssal depths of the Pacific for millennia. Its seemingly inexplicable influence on the surrounding environment has been cautiously observed during recent years. There are numerous speculations orbiting its persistence under such immense pressure, the exact matter it could be composed of, its disruptive effects on electronic systems and consequentially anything incorporating them (e.g.: research DSVs, unmanned submarines) even relatively far from its core range and, above all, its purpose. Of semi-transcendental nature or not, its close surroundings are either practically nonexistent or notably different from the remainder of beings in the encompassing abyssopelagic layer and even in the underlying hadal zone.
Haha, fiction aside, try something factual ... like full-viewing perhaps?
